SetSail vs. Xactly AlignStar

SetSail is perfect for a mid to large sized sales organization that would like to spark a greater sense of competition amongst their sales team. If your sales team isn't that size then it would seem fairly redundant to use this software with your reps as there will not be as much competition driving the results that SetSail is intended for.

If you have reps and need territories assigned geographically then AlignStar is a great option. While we do not have reps in the field, I can see how powerful it can be in aligning territories not only based on estimated revenue or some other metric but also with rep location and driving in mind.

• Detailed label options by ZIP code. I know the immediate impact of moving a single ZIP code.
• Territory Optimizer. If we are having trouble figuring out the correct configuration for a particular area, its helpful to see what the program suggests. It may come up with something we hadn't thought of yet.
• Custom layers. I am able to mark the previous territory boundaries, so if we want to undo a change, I know exactly where we started from.

• SetSail can track general customer engagement
• Help with adding contact roles
• Looks at who is getting in touch with prospects that aren't opps yet

• Easier functionality to label the territories. We currently still use the desktop app and labels for any feature are rather small and not intuitive.
• Speed of the application. The desktop version we currently use tends to be a bit slower and runs into the "application not responding" issue quite often.
• Ability for the desktop version to automatically update Salesforce. It would be nice if I could have Alignstar update a field on an account record in Salesforce when I make updates in Alignstar.

Yes we work with a few different tools including setsail, outreach and ZoomInfo. There are many other tools but we haven't considered too many to look at a t all. Not sure if these tools are directly go against setsail but they work hand in hand with our salesforce application

Javelin is another tool that we have used to assist us with territory alignment. Great tool. AlignStar is on par with Javelin.
